Cards were on their backs and Mengshi Tian was getting up from the table, his 6♣4♣ losing out to Adrien Burgniard's A♥7♦ on A♣7♣10♦2♠9♠, with the money presumably going in on the flop after Tian flopped a flush draw and Burgniard hit two pair.
Burgniard now moves aboves the three million mark.
At the same time Yannice Bahri was seen leaving the tournament area, meaning we are now down to 32 and a four-table redraw. There will be a short break while the redraw takes place.
Arthur Amar shoved for 460,000 from the button, and he was called by Yoann Piau in the big blind.
Arthur Amar: Q♣9♦
Yoann Piau: A♦8♠
Amar flopped two pair on a board of K♣9♠K♦5♣10♦ and he secured a double up.
Having lost a chunk with pockets kings against pocket aces to the same opponent, Rayane Bouibeb was all-in for 350,000 and at risk versus Moncef Karoui in a blind on blind spot.
Rayane Bouibeb: K♥Q♥
Moncef Karoui: 4♠4♣
Karoui was ahead with pocket fours but the 7♥K♣9♣ flop soon changed that, and the 10♦ turn and 2♣ river did not alter matters, Bouibeb securing the double-up with a pair of kings.

The 34 remaining players of the €1,200 WSOP Circuit Paris Main Event are on a 20-minute break.
In two eliminations, there will be a redraw on four tables.
Around 225,000 was in the middle in a hand between Mikael Ifergan in middle position, the player in the small blind and David Hu in the big blind.
Ifergan continued with a bet of 65,000, which only Hu called.
The 2♦ turn paired the board, and Hu changed approach, leading out with a bet of 80,000. Ifergan called.
On the K♦ river, Hu moved all in with the covering stack, putting maximum pressure on his opponent. Ifergan thought it through for quite some time before folding, leaving himself 575,000 behind.
